Umahi 100% qualifies to rule Nigeria by any yardstick. I will prefer him than most others based on his great performance as governor.

Same here.

He will be a way better option than Orji Uzor and Okorocha.

Umahi2023!

Ifesinachi22:
You are routing for Isi-Uzo. I'm so sure about this.

No!

I’m rooting for Nike.

Edward Ubochi2023.

Trust me, I don’t know the man and he doesn’t know me, but I want someone from Nike that can give Abakpa a facelift. They have suffered.

Okay, you are right about the gifts. Of course it is periodic and she is pretending. Let’s pretend that 90% of Nigerian youths in relationships have their SILs numbers, let alone knowing their birthdays.



No part of my post said the guy doesn’t love her. She calls, sends text, chats and travels across Nigeria for their occasions. How many of your gfs and wives do that?

How many of you Nigerian men do that for your in-laws? Not many Nigerians have that “seamless” relationships with their in-laws. This is different from hating them. I mean, relationships where you guys can talk like brothers and sisters. Abeg make una dey talk true. If she is cordial, respectful and welcoming, I don’t see the issue.

Pocohantus!

There should be limit to feminism without reason.

Most of the time in this life, the judgment of our actions are informed by our past actions.

The girl has over the years demonstrated some aloofness from the family of the guy and that’s why they became critical of her.

Read one of her replies to one of the comments on the first page and see where she admitted that she did not want to go for the wedding but because her boyfriend didn’t feel good about it, she decided to attend.

So you see? It seems the boy has been the one dragging her close to his family but she kept being reclusive about the whole thing with the excuse that “that’s my nature”.

See, the most you can do for young girls that listen to you is to tell them what is reasonable and rational as informed by the African tradition.

As Africans, the only thing we have left is our family institution and if that is allowed to battered by westernization, then we have nothing left.

Lastly, put yourself in that guy’s shoes, would you marry a guy that doesn’t seem enthusiastic about anything concerning your family no matter he claims to love you?

HelloWriter:
CNN vindicated at last. Where is Lie Muhammad? Nigerians, let's be prepared for self-help because we've got no Government. Boko Haram or ISWAP or 'Bandits' might just take over this country one day as the Talibans took over Afghanistan.

I’m telling you.

They will be the happiest in all these.

I’m still waiting for Lai Mohammed to disprove the report of the panel.

pocohantas:
How is she not welcoming them? She isn’t welcoming them yet she buys them gifts? How many of you Nigerian men have sent gifts to your brother in-law on his birthday? Nigerian men that once they pay bride price, you won’t see them again. It is the wife that would be giving excuse upandan “he is busy”.

Should she pack and go live with them?

There was nowhere she mentioned buying gifts in her post. Don’t say what she didn’t say.

And about the periodic care she gives, it’s because she’s yet to be married. How are we sure even the periodic care won’t disappear after marriage?

Havilaah1:
Yes he has a very close relationship with them, I'm not saying my relationship with them will remain like this. We'll get to talk better when we become close but he wants the closeness before marriage.
How to keep close tab with people I'm not yet used to is what is bothering me plus the communication will strictly be on calls and chat as I'm in a different state.

If your relationship with them didn’t improve now that you have something to lose, how is he sure it will improve after marriage when you have nothing to lose anymore?

And hey, I can tell you are not telling the whole truth. That wedding you attended, you were possibly forced to attend after giving excuses why you wouldn’t.

Let me tell you something, introverts are the greatest talkatives when the accept people. It’s obvious you have only accepted your boyfriend but not anyone else in his family and that’s why you can’t let your guards down.

Favfables1:
It's obvious your boyfriend has a very close relationship with his family and i can say that his opinion is largely influenced by what his family thinks ((thus that's why he's acting withdrawn because his family has reservations about you))...

The solution is quite simple...
Work things out with his family, try and get close to them....
There's nothing like "that's how I am", that mentality is BULLSHIT!!!!!! If it's important to you, you'll look for a way to make it work...
If you can't compromise, then walk away and date someone who's family you flow well with...chikina!!

On the other hand, your boyfriend should cut you some slack as regards you and his family...you can't become besties with people you barely spend time with...so tell the alaye make him rest small...

And please forget those childish people asking you "whether you're getting married to your boyfriend and his family?" With the closeness of your boyfriend to his family, if then no like you ...forget am... Them go table your matter for family meeting and you go see the results of the matter, whether e favour you or not...

Lastly...
Never expect that guy to choose you over his family ...you're just his girlfriend or fiancee and thus you're easily replaceable, but his family are not so... Like them elders go talk, "blood thick pass water"

Na only you get sense for here!

Girls with their stupid mentality of “that’s who I am”.

Even nature is nurtured!

The just concluded EndSARS Panel Report of the Lagos State Judicial Commission has just been featured on CNN.

Recall that CNN was the first International News Platform to make an extensive report of the massacre after government authorities including the military, tried to deny it happened.

Havilaah1:
Good day all, i want to pour my heart on what's bothering me and get people's view and possible solutions to the issue.

I've been in a relationship with my boo for a couple of years now and it's a serious relationship, we're are very close.. infact we're practically besties aside relationship. For some months now i noticed he no longer gives me attention like he used to, the vibe between us dropped and it was getting me angry. He stopped doing the things he knows i like, he knows my love language is attention/care as well as complement but he stopped doing all these. I'd send him a photo where i look so beautiful and he'd only say you look good, at a point i started preparing my mind for the worse.

Just yesterday he told me there's something he wants us to talk to me about and it's been bothering him and i asked him what it was, he said it's about us. He said 2 of his siblings asked him same question on different occasions but, he didn't see it as a big deal the first time but when it was asked the second time he got angry and that's the reason he hasn't been flowing well with me.

The question was how can you get married to someone who is not close to your siblings, when he said this i was weak. I know when we started the relationship he told me his siblings are free people i can relate with, i told him i will try. I was in contact with 2 of his sisters before this year( i sometimes chat, text or call during birthdays, new month and festivities).

This year i started chatting with the 3rd sister, her wedding was coming up and she sent me IV. I congratulated her and she asked if i will be around, i told her i will try and create time so i can travel down to attend. I really did travel down to attend the wedding, she was surprised when she saw me but i noticed my boo wasn't happy with me all through the event.
Now he's saying he's in close communication with my mum and siblings, they talk all the time but same can not be said about me. He was thinking how can he get married and his siblings will refuse coming to his house because there's no relationship between us.

I'm a very introverted person while himself and his siblings on the other hand are extroverts and ambiverts, i don't find it easy building up ties with people from a distance. I have very few friends, i can be in a place and i won't talk if I'm not used to the people or there's no serious thing to talk about (that's the reason i talk to his siblings during birthdays, new month or festivities). I don't know how to build up a strong relationship with them before marriage, it's even worse because we don't get to see often cos they're in a different state but I've visited them on a few occasions.
How do i handle this issue. I was in deep thought all through the night, i couldn't get up to 4 hours sleep.


God knows i love his family as much as i do mine, he himself said he knows i care about them 100% but his family cannot read my mind to see that i have them in mind. After our discussion last night i couldn't sleep, I've been feeling bad about the whole thing. Introversion is making me look like I'm not a good person.

I really don't know how to go about this, please i need advice from people who have been in similar situation.

Please help move to front page for wider view.

Just that I personally, and over 99 percent of men, will not put a ring on your finger if you can’t relate with my siblings. I will never.

If I were him I would dump your ass straight away because you going back to say you have accepted his siblings will only amount to pretense just for the marriage to happen then you go back to hating his siblings.

People like you cause your husbands to be detached from their families after marriage.

Change your ways!

ba7man:
Are you a kid to think diversifying an economy is a 6yr project?

Are you aware of the Billions of dollars required to diversify an economy?? Where do you expect the money to come from in a recession??

If it was so easy, why hasn't any administration carried it out in 4 decades??

You guys have very unrealistic and unreasonable expectations as if you don't reason the grey areas in every situation, just 1-dimemsional way of thinking.

Another example is that news you guys peddle of Buhari saying " I will make N1 equal to 1$" (Frankly, i don't believe the statement, or it was an exaggerated joke)....and you guys truly act like you believe and are waiting for it to come to pass.

It reeks of crass ignorance expecting that to come to pass, in a mono-product economy with a population that produce nothing and rely on importation.

Don't dumb down your mental capacity to think because of hatred for Buhari.

Now the elections are won, you are talking about its impossibility in a short period of time as the entire Buhari tenure. But when the impossible statement was made in the run on to 2015 elections, you lots carried it on your heads like gala even as we tried to point out how impossible it was.

Where were you when that statement was made before the elections?

plaindealer:
So, i your crooked and backward world, it is OK to convict and hold people liable without evidence or proof of what they did wrong?

Dude, please stop quoting me with your elementary and Stone Age reasoning..

Is assessment of crime scene the only means to evidence of a crime?

Agbegbaorogboye:
Hmmm. Una see zombie life?

First it was what are their names and where are their family members?

Now, zombies have become experts in crime investigation and forensics

A report written by a retired justice and a panel consisting of senior advocates and other well experienced persons who sat and worked for six months is being trashed by an internet nonentity.

You see am

Don’t mind the fool.

He’s talking about how the panel did not investigate the crime scene or conduct forensic examination of the crime scene, and I have been asking him whose fault it was that the crime scene was tampered with and he couldn’t answer.

Again I asked him, so because the crime scene was tampered with, therefore the case should be forgotten and never talked about again and no one held capable?

Zombies are just illiterate societal irritants who should be gathered in one room and exterminated.

plaindealer:
How do you determine that a crime was committed without investigation and crime scene evidence in the first place?

Don't you first have to investigate, collect and analyse crime scene evidence to determine the occurrence of any crime at the said location?

Don't you first have to identify the victims and bind them to the crime scene before you conclude that they in fact died at the toll gate.

Do you assign blame and hold people liable without any investigation to determine what crime they committed and how they are in fact liable?

You are a prime example per how incompetence, professional apathy and laziness reigns supreme in Nigeria.

Go and sit down somewhere..

You are ranting too much with answering my question.

In the absence of accessibility to the crime scene which was caused by agents of govt who rushed to tamper with crime scene which in itself is a crime, are you now of the opinion that the case should be dropped and nobody should be held liable?

I ask again, are you aware that tampering with crime scene is a crime and can be tagged trying to pervert the course of justice? Or your deficient knowledge jurisprudence fails you there?

And talking about investigation, what do you think the panel was doing for one year?

plaindealer:
So, you are free to reach whatever conclusion and type report because they did not preserve the crime scene?

I see how shallow and lazy you think, must you think it's OK to be incompetent because other people were incompetent?

Stop embarrassing yourself.

So, by your estimation, since crime scene was tampered with then case closed?

Nobody will be held liable anymore?

Was that your thinking and that of your paymasters when they tampered with the crime scene because you thought that would be the end?

Let me ask you quickly, so if an accident happened and the vehicle that crashed was rolled out of the way as not to cause gridlock, then automatically the accident never happened?

I expect this post to hit front page with the speed of light.

But there was a People’s Gazette article yesterday of how Osinbajo is shutting up every voice of opposition with litigation.

Like the article rightly put it, Osinbajo is a Legal terrorist.

I don’t want any idiot coming here to compare Osinbajo with Peter Obi ever again.

plaindealer:
Just imagine, no investigation, no crime scene and trace evidence, in fact, this report has zero connection with the crime scene or what transpired at the toll-gate.

They did not collect any evidence from the crime scene and they did not investigate the crime scene, but they listed the Lekki toll gate as the location of injury and death?

How exactly did they conclude without crime scene evidence and investigation that people died at the toll gate or a massacre took place? How exactly?

Is this a joke or what?

Whose duty was it to preserve the crime scene?

Or did your paymasters deliberately send LAWMA to clean up that place so you can have some trash to hang on like you are doing now?

Ozalla, Nkanu West Local Government.

His father Frank Nweke was the last Igwe of Ozalla.
Because of crisis, out cast or no out cast, which village will produce the Igwe, they have not gotten another Igwe since Igwe Frank Nweke died in 2012.

Nkanu has produced the governor in Chimaroke.

This time, it’s the turn of Nike or Isiuzo.

That’s why I asked my initial question.

Be like Iranians want make boys remember them.

Frank Nweke Jr. Enugu 2023

Is Frank from Isiuzo, Nike or Nkanu?

EmmyCC:
The writer is one of the problems of the Enugu administration. Majority of the people of Enugu are not happy with this government and the governor and his appointees should pay attention to know why the people are not happy instead of blaming imaginary enemies. Ugwuanyi is not doing well. Hoha!
Roads in Enugu are a shadow of themselves.
Earlier this year ndị Enugu cried that they lacked water during the dry season and trended a hashtag on Twitter. The government and it's people called it campaign of calumny and promised to do this and that. It's almost another dry season the Enugu water corporation is yet to start supplying water as they should when we complain, they will call it sponsored campaign of calumny.
Pensioners ain't paid as and when due, this government no dey pay gratuity at all. ETC yet you want people not to complain?
You are building a new ESUT Teaching hospital when there is a good and more accessible one that you starve of the necessary items that a hospital should have just because you want to take a part of the University to your Nsukka people. Go to parklane and see that ordinary plaster a whole teaching hospital go dey talk day dem no get am.

Don’t mind them.

One thing that surprises me is that everything about Ugwuanyi always hit front page on Nairaland even without comment.

Which goes to tell how much resources Ugwuanyi has deployed towards buying up media spaces.

Everybody in Enugu knows Ugwuanyi is a madam except his paid media warriors.


Meanwhile, Ekweremadu should go and rest. It is the turn of Enugu East to produce governor in 2023 and no amount of campaign of calumny can change that.

ba7man:
......Now take that growth figure+ size of economy and compare it to pre-covid economy.....instead of stunting your ability to reason to justify the high your brain recieves when you blame Buhari.

O.k. then consider certain factors like S.A being a private sector driven economy....... and compare it to the Nigerian mono-product economy (Crude-oil to refresh your brain) and the sudden fall in crude oil price.

Or i can choose to be simple brained like you and just scream "Buhari"!!!!!

You just counted mono-economy ( crude oil) as part of Nigeria’s regressing indices.

But didn’t your Buhari promise to diversify the economy? Or 6 years and counting is not enough to diversify the economy?

Is that the excuse you are going to give next?

ba7man:
Go read up and stop asking me questions.

When you lack knowledge, you research and not sit down and shout "Buhari". You're not a kid or an okada rider.

I read the report from start to finish before commenting.

And from the report, South Africa is first in Africa with over $600billion. While Egypt has HNWI of 282biilion dollars and Nigeria third with 207billion.

So the question I’m posing to you is why did other cities maintain growth while Lagos declined by over 30 percent?

Stop talking about research and work with what is already provided here. That’s if you have any cognitive abilities.

ba7man:
Global recession due to low oil prices and Covid-19 is responsible.

Learn to read and research , not rely on beer parlour gossip.

So was South Africa and Egypt immune to global recession and COVID induced economic downturn?

Lai Mohammed said no part of this country is under the control Boko Haram.

Zombies in their stupid and lack of brain, believed lie Mohammed and kept rehashing his lies.

They kept convulsing and foaming in the mouth that it was only during GEJ that Boko Haram last held any territory in Nigeria.

But the truth is coming out.

First, Daily Trust reported how Borno indigenes now pay Zakat to ISWAP.

Now a teacher in Borno is giving eyewitness account.

Zombies how far na?

Meanwhile, I thought we were told that no part of Nigeria is under the control of Boko Haram anymore?

Ok, I get it. They are now under the control of ISWAP.

Make them dey clarify these things na.

Unfortunately, all of them put together is not up to Elon Musk .

So at the ratio of 1- 9,100, it cannot

Meanwhile, the report says Lagos lost about 100 multi-millionaires and about 1,800 millionaires between 2017 and 2020.

That’s clearly the effect of bad governance. Buharinomics in action.

But unfortunately, the landlord of Lagos, the Baba Sope in Chief of Nigeria, has been the greatest supporter of this disaster of a government; just like majority of Nairaland resident zombies are all Lagos urchins.

Fools!

After APC’s humiliation in Anambra despite heavyweight defections, anyone who values his political career in southeast knows APC is the wrongest of party to be.

APC is anathema down here.

Death to APC!
